Can you buy valve seal for Chevy?
Yes you can. I'd check the valve guides for wear while you're at it though. If the valve guides are bad a new seal isn't going to be a long term fix.

Is it anything you can get from a auto part store for a quick fix for valve guides to stop smoking?
If it smokes only on start up, and then quits smoking in a few minutes then the valve seals are bad, and they fit over the valve stem and down onto the top of the valve guide. They stop oil from running down the valve stem and burned in the cylinder. They do not sell anything in a can that will fix that problem. You need to buy valve seals and have them installed by a trained mechanic. And they come in a plastic bag not a can. SORRY NO quick fix.

Three possibilities. Overfilled with oil. Worn cylinder or rings. Worn valve guides. On most smaller engines, it's cheaper to replace the engine or the short block. If the engine has overhead valves and the valve guides are worn, a short block won't fix the problem.
